Probably no need to take it fishing. It wouldn't 'work' anyway.....

Bet it works good for 'rockfish' laugh

Might be good for catfish, but prolly a regulation that it can't be used within 100 yards of a watermelon patch.

Has to be a reproduction, originals came with a detailed, small scaled logging chain attached to the neck and used as a leader.

They wouldn't bite it. It would leave a very bad taste in their mouth.

nothing to see here... I thought this was a thread about our President...and then you guys pulled the old bait and switch on me...
I remember a childs book I had as a kid that was titled the same...it was about a hindu kid & a tiger...

At last, a smart reply. India has black tribes, too, and tigers are Asian cats. (Didn't stop 'em from making Sambo's Restaurant turn into Denny's, though.)

Yeah, hooked us.

I remember the "Sambo's" Restraunts, they were good places to eat, and the story of little black Sambo was on the menu's and was the decor along the walls.

On the topic of lures, somewhere I have a "Peanut" (rebel brand, I think)lure made in the likeness of Jimmy Carter with a big ole grin and all.

I never have understood how the heck LBS got turned into a racist story. IIRC recall, Sambo outsmarted the tigers to escape them.
Posted By: AussieGunWriter Re: Little Black Sambo - 10/31/14
You would be astonished at the common products available in Australian supermarkets while I was growing up and no-one ever thought of racism. Would never have occurred to anyone because they were simply, products.

Beat me to it Ingwe. I was fixing to post that if you brought that down here to South Louisiana, you could catch a mess of gators, not to mention a few garfish and choupique ( bowfin or grindle for non-Cajuns) grin .

There was a Sambo's restaurant in Montgomery in 1975. Pretty good food.

I had that one as a kid too. Seems like I remember that tigers turn into butter if they circle a tree enough times.

The original story of Little Black Sambo was about a little Indian boy from India. Had nothing to do with Africans.

He made them run in circles, until they turned to butter for the pancakes.
Posted By: 700LH Re: Little Black Sambo - 11/01/14
Sambos restaurants had " Tiger Butter."

We did it as a kid's play in school. And I wore my homemade tiger suit to a Halloween carnival, later on that year.

And "Aunt(Ain't) Jemima Syrup"
Posted By: curdog4570 Re: Little Black Sambo - 11/01/14
I think "Uncle Ben's Rice" is still on the shelves, but not "Negro Head Oysters".

But they discovered they could claim it as their own and profit from it and the only reason they could profit from it was because of stupid white folks.

Sambo of Sambo's Restaurants wasn't very Afrikaner black was he?

Well show the rest of it......pull the barrel down!

Had one of those in the 40s.....
Posted By: VernAK Re: Little Black Sambo - 11/01/14
Dammit pull the barrel down for us!

Maybe yours is different than the one I saw years ago that had a rubber penis that popped out when the barrel was pulled down.

Another generation gap issue in fishing/hunting gear.
